Distracted Drivers
Claims involving texting, phone use, inattention, or other distractions behind the wheel.
Fund Capital America (FCA) provides case-based pre-settlement funding for qualifying pedestrians with pending personal injury claims in California and other states FCA serves.
Funding availability, approval, amount, cost, and terms depend on the individual claim and applicable state requirements.
Pedestrian accident pre-settlement funding is a non-recourse cash advance based on the potential proceeds of a pending injury claim. Fund Capital America reviews the claim with the plaintiff's attorney—not through traditional consumer credit underwriting. If the claim qualifies, funding may be completed within 24 hours after attorney verification and signed documents. Availability and terms vary by case and state.
